About our taco bar hire in Osney
Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. It works well for retirement parties and barn and marquee parties, with a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
For a place the size of Osney, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and guests build their own tacos. Let us know about the drive and parking. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Daylight in Osney runs to about 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

FAQs for Osney
What’s the nearest station to Osney for guests?
Osney has its own station: Oxford station.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Frideswide's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
What does taco bar hire cost?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so your hosts do not need to. When service ends, we clear it away.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the bar to suit.
